Is the 40th Anniversary Edition 370Z worth it?

I currently drive a 95 Civic, the only car I've ever owned. I am looking forward to a huge upgrade in a 370Z. The 40th Anniversary Edition caught my eye,

Default Is the 40th Anniversary Edition 370Z worth it?

I currently drive a 95 Civic, the only car I've ever owned. I am looking forward to a huge upgrade in a 370Z. The 40th Anniversary Edition caught my eye, as I love the red and black interior. Do you guys think the price tag is worth it? How much would it cost to buy a base 370Z and have the same custom interior put in?

Yes it's worth it. You can probably find a used one. I doubt there are very many new ones left.

Only one available within 250 miles is a private listing asking $34k and has 2,200 miles on it. Does that price sound reasonable?

That sounds pretty good. Maybe compare to prices for non-40th anniversary 2010 models.

Worth it if you like the color scheme.

there's a "new" one at the dealership here in anderson, it's been sitting there for a while, they may be willing to deal on it to get it to move

Piedmont Nissan - Anderson, South Carolina | New and Used Nissan Cars | Serving Greenville, Hartwell & Easley SC

i do like the 40th aniv Z a lot, if you like the red interior, it's probably worth the investment. long term it may be worth a few more bucks when trading in but i would only get it if you really like the red interior and dark wheels with red calipers (and i do!)

I can't seem to find the new one on that website. Do you remember the price? Next step for me is attempting to improve my credit as much as possible, and search for a coar loan. Never done this before, so it's interesting to say the least.

So now I have a tough decision. Go ahead and get the car now, or wait until September when my credit score will be higher. It seems to be rare to have one of these within 50 miles at a great price, I don't want to pass this opportunity by.

That's true. I'll check in with this guy every week or so to make sure there are no serious offers on it.
